Rolls-Royce has launched its new offering in India, which is sure to shake up your bank account. The British marque has brought in the all-new Black Badge Ghost in India at a whopping Rs 12.25 crore! 

T The price is inclusive of all the optional accessories and equipment. The actual ex-showroom price of the Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge will only be revealed during the customer’s commissioning process. 

So, what do you get for shelling out almost a dozen crore? As the name suggests, the Rolls-Royce Ghost comes finished in a Signature Black paint scheme, which replaces the bling-bling chrome elements of the car, like the Spirit of Ecstasy, with a more muted look. 

The company will also offer an additional 44,000 exterior paint options to choose from, along with your own bespoke paint scheme, in case the options don’t suit your taste. 

The dark treatment is carried over on the inside as well, with air-con vents, the dashboard and even the Mandarin leather interiors coming with a shade of black. Speaking of luxury features, the Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge gets a champagne cooler in the armrest, massage seats and electronic doors. Driver aid functionality here includes a heads-up display, cruise control, parking assist and more. 

Powering the new Black Badge Ghost is the same twin-turbocharged 6.75-litre V12 engine seen before, but it is now tuned to make more power at 601hp (up by 29.4hp) and 906Nm (up by 50Nm) of torque from just 1,700rpm, compared to the standard Ghost. 

The company has also introduced something called a new ‘Low’ driving mode, which helps in increasing the speed of the 8-speed automatic’s gearshifts by 50 percent. You also get a tweaked exhaust note that adds more oomph to the Black Badge’s boldness.
